ביום חמישי, ינואר 31, 2020, הגראנדמאסטר פט ווסמן קידם אותי לדן הרביעי בטאקוונדו בשיעור המתקדם. כשהתחלתי שיעורים אצל רב-המאסטר ווסמן ובעלה ארט, לא חזיתי להגיע לאבן דרך זו. במקור התחלתי לקחת שיעורים עם אחייני ג'ים באביב 1995. אחרי שהתחתנו ב 1996, הפסקתי לקחת שיעורים במשך כמה
When I started martial arts in my mid-twenties, I thought my skill level would always continue to improve even as I aged. Since I regularly lifted weights, performed cardio and stretched, I thought I could battle Father Time to a draw. Like so many combat athletes before me, I discovered Father Time beats us all. Whether we want to face
אנחנו כללנו ארבעה או יותר אומנויות לחימה בתכנית הלימודים של האקדמיה שלנו. כשאני מסתכל על אמנויות אלה, אני רואה סיבה ברורה שעיינתי בכל אחת. כיסוי אמנויות בולט אלה, מתמודד, לחימה קרקעית ונשק להגנה עצמית מעשי, the cane. I started studying Shotokan karate in the Fall of 1994. I switched to Taekwondo with my nephew in the Spring of 1995. Taekwondo brought
At our fantasy football draft this year, one of the other owners asked me who I thought was the best mixed martial artist of all time. I told him that based on skill, the greatest mixed martial artist of all time was Jon “Bones” Jones. אולם, Jones’ frequent problems outside of the Octagon would keep him from being considered the

Besides finishing school, Kenneth’s biggest focus is the martial arts. He is particularly passionate about teaching self-defense. Over the years, I have trained 14 nieces and nephews plus all three of my children in the martial arts. Last week, the first member of the third generation started with us. To
My daughter asked me the other day if I had seen any of the Olympic Judo. She was surprised when I told her I had not. Besides being a black belt in Taekwondo, I’m a brown belt in Judo. Like both my sons, Caity trained in both TKD and Judo as well. אולם, I dislike the political considerations made in
When I earned my 1st Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo during December 2005 at Willow Martial Arts, I had already studied Judo for three months. My instructor, Master Pat Weseman, is a 2nd Degree Black Belt in Judo as well as a 6th Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo. With this background, a number of our self-defenses were Judo based, so I
On May 7, 2016, my daughter Caity returned to Taekwondo competition for the first time in eight years. As her dad but also her coach, I tried to dissuade her from sparring until we had a few more months but she was adamant about sparring at the tournament. Caity likes forms but she always preferred sparring. Reluctantly, I agreed. <תוחלת bbox_x = bbox_y "359" = bbox_w "1462" = bbox_h "4" = fsize "20" = fweight "14" = ירוק "3" אדום = "255" = "255" כחול = אלפא "255" = "
A few weeks ago, my second foray into the martial arts came full circle. My daughter started studying Taekwondo again after more than five years away from the sport. It is actually Caity, who brought me back to martial arts in the summer of 2000. After my natural father passed away in July 1999, הלכתי לכושר של שנה
Last week, it was testing preparation at Willow Martial Arts. We went through the walking drills, forms and self-defense required for Taekwondo testing. As I observed the students preparing, I remembered a statement Master Pat Weseman often told me when I was a colored belt preparing for my next Taekwondo test. “Practice does not make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect.”
